A Quartz crystal with very attractive inclusions which range in color from yellow green to a peachy color to black. I have been told the inclusions are Chlorite which has partially oxidized. Lodolite is a metaphysical term used for Quartz with multi colored inclusions. On some of the sides, the termination and some of the faces of the termination, there is a thin layer, up to 2 mm, of water clear Quartz over the inclusions. Elsewhere, the inclusions come to the surface. The luster on the surfaces where this layer of clear Quartz occurs is very high and much less so on the other surfaces.
Condition: Very Good
Flaws: There is some minor chipping on one of the edges of the termination.
